  • With big prints like this that require tolerances I tend to make a dedicated model for just the feature with the tolerance and hone it in on that. Since just printing the bit I need to test is way faster than reprinting the whole thing a bunch of times. It takes a bit more planning but is totally worth it in saved plastic and time!

    If I’m in a time crunch for the piece then sandpaper works well enough if the tolerance was too tight, and some wraps of electrical tape if it’s too loose

    The print looks great tho!



  • I’m grateful to have a group of friends that have all stayed in touch since elementary school. Discord has been a huge part of being able to stay friends as well have all gotten older. It’s become our third space, there is almost always someone in the chat every night so we can drop in chat and catch up, people come and go as they can, it works well for us and gives us a no pressure way to stay in touch
